New uromastyx owner question

Hey everyone, I just got a baby uromastyx the other day. I had a question about temps, he’s very small only a few months old and in a 40 gallon tank right now, the cool side is 80degree and the hot basking side rock measures 110 on the dot. I notice my guy likes to spend most of his time on that basking rock. I am using a 100w basking bulb at the moment but could go up to a 150 if I need to increase the heat, but I read babies don’t mind it being a little cooler around that 110 mark. Do you think I need to change anything? Should I add a stick that can take him closer to the bulb? I will add photos for representation with the temp measure things. Any help appreciated :)

Weird stain found in enclosure

Found this stain this morning. I don't know how long it's been there since I might not have seen it in the past few days. I know uros pee solid so I'm wondering whay this might be and whether I should be worried or not?
